1. Promotions Part-3

   05/12/08 20:32:34 | 0 Comments

   The final segment of my promotions blog is about getting the students out to the basketball games. This segment is about what the University itself can do to get the students into and involved, and not what the students (ie. Rowdies) are doing to help promote involvement themselves. I applaud the Rowdies on their ideas, as they are an integral part of student involvement, hearing from your peers is always a good way to generate responses, and having a dedidcated group of students is something...

   Reading the two Wright State message boards, I have seen a lot of good ideas to help increase attendance at the basketball games. I seen people suggest ticket giveaways both single game and season tickets. Some other suggestions have been food giveaways/discounts and all-you-can-eat deals included with a ticket, or special entertainment at the game. While others have suggested military nights and other specific occupation or company nights. These are just a few of the ideas, and all of these are...

   What can the WSU Athletic Department do to get more fans in the seats? That's a tough question, and there is no sure answer.

I feel that Bob Grant is not only a good athletics guy, but a good people guy too. He has been fundamental in bringing in more money into the athletic department to upgrade many things. To raise this money, he has been inovative in...

4. Balancing Act

   Wright State Coach Brad Brownell has decided to go the juco route with this year's recruiting class. This will give the Raiders a big (6) junior class (Duggins, Brown, Gardner, Thomas, Lewis, Cooperwood) counting the two new junior college transfers Lewis and Cooperwood. In the past, this would be a big problem with unbalanced classes, causing problems down the road when all six players are replaced with new guys. The good news for the WSU coaching staff is that these six players are...

5. IU Coaching Rumor

   03/30/08 18:05:26 | 0 Comments

   With the Tony Bennett snub of Indiana University, and the $2 million buyout in Sean Miller of Xavier's contract, talk again has come to Brad Brownell as a possible candidate for IU. Until Brad is officially contacted, I would say most of this is just rumor and speculation, and should be put to rest until Coach Brownell is actually contacted. I think it would be a great compliment for Coach B to get the IU job, and he is surely worthy of the position from everything I have both seen on the...
